Oh, my goodness….we are hours away from the BIG DAY….and I have been in last minute mode in slow motion….Oh, well, such is life….I made this card and mailed it off today using this cutie patootie from TFG and following their current Friday Challenge- Winter Theme.

AND….I'm so proud that I actually used my December SC card kit to make the card! Woot Woot for using supplies! This cute little Anya was dropped off at the post office this afternoon so she is well on her way to my friend who lives north of me! Woot! Well, thanks so much for stopping by and hope you have an awesome weekend and get all your last minute or loose ends tied up before the big day! YAY!

Seems like forever since I've blogged, but I'm planning to get back into it to this month and catch up with reading my favorite blogs and also playing along with fun challenges! Well, today is exciting because I want to share that I am designing for Pink Bow Ties stamp company and a new stamp set called Soulful Sunday has just been released! Woot!!! This stamp set is so awesome and versatile--go check it out HERE! Also, if you would like to see more of my DT projects with Soulful Sunday please check out my YouTube video HERE! Ok so like I said I want to get back into the swing of things- using my supplies by playing along with different challenges! This week I decided to play along with The Greeting Farm's Farm Fresh Friday Challenge- Anything Goes.

Here's the card I made using Pink Bow Ties- Soulful Sunday stamp set and also The Greeting Farm- Angel Anya!

Well, I'll be back soon to play along with some fun challenges and share more Pink Bow Ties projects with you! Thanks so much for stopping by! Have an awesome rest of the week!

Hello! Cheers to a new fresh week of craftiness and hopefully a lot of productivity thrown in there, too! This month I wanted to make sure that I really used my scrappy stash, so like a crazy woman I have signed up for 5 different swaps!!! Somehow my plan has semi worked---I've been using my stash, yet still shopping! It's a never ending cycle- what can I say? I'm a scrappy addict! BUT----on a positive note I received two new stamp sets last week and I have used both of them right away! For me that is unheard of because I like to hoard my new goodies for a while before using them, but in the sprit of trying to only buy things I'll really use- I went a head and inked up my new The Greeting Farm- "Twisted" kit and my new Pink Bow Ties "Social Media" set! I made this card for one of my swaps:

Hello there! Just stopping by with a card I made for a friend's brother who's ill. For the past few weeks I've been making tons of girly projects with flowers and glitter, so it was challenging yet fun to leave all my girlie stuff to the side and make a masculine card! I started off with this weeks sketch from Mojo Monday

and kind of went from there….

Supplies:

Patterend Paper: Heidi Swap

Stamps: The Greeting Farm- Nurse Anya;

Docerela Creations- Birthday Wishes ***love the versatility of these stamps- love the original sentiment "sending birthday wishes from across the miles", but since this is a get well card I just printed out "healing prayers" and instantly transformed it into a get well card!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hopefully this will be my summer of "crafts" and that I will craft like crazy to get my stash under control. Well, who am I kidding? I don't think my stash will ever be under control, but at least I can feel good about actually using my stuff instead of just hoarding! :)

This is my story...

A creative soul who loves to document life and the lives of my family and friends through the lens of my camera and pores of my paper. I love to immerse myself into visual art of all types and just quietly take it all in...But, the majority of my time is spent being a, wife, mother, daughter, friend, and employee.
To me, life is about loving and laughing- I do both as much as possible! The good life for me is simple-
Living, Loving, and Laughing.
